Title: Compressible ply for printing blankets
Inventor: CASTELLI FRANCESCO
IPC: B29C70/02
Filed: 1993-03-24
Granted: 1996-03-21
Abstract: A laminated printing blanket having compressible and resilient properties and a method for its production are provided. The compressible characteristics are provided by disposing an intermediate layer having substantially uniformly distributed voids of substantially uniform size between the base ply and the working surface of the printing blanket. The voids of the compressible intermediate layer are formed by introducing high melting point microspheres formed from thermoplastic resins into an elastomeric matrix, coating said microsphere containing elastomeric matrix upon an upper surface of the base ply and then vulcanizing the coated base ply at a temperature of between about 80-150° C. for between about one and six hours to form the compressible layer having substantially uniform compression characteristics. Once all of the layers of the blanket are stacked, a final vulcanization treatment at between about 132-160° C. for between about 30 minutes to sixteen hours at a pressure between about atmospheric and 6 kg/cm2 in a known manner completes the curing of all the layers to produce a laminated printing blanket.

Title: System for injecting gas into a detonation projection gun
Inventor: BARYKIN GEORGY YUR EVICH
IPC: C23C4/126
Filed: 1997-09-11
Granted: 2002-11-21
Abstract: The system for injecting gas for a detonation projection gun does not incorporate mechanical closing valves or systems for the supply of combustible gas or other inert additive compounds such as nitrogen, argol, helium or the like. On the contrary, the supply of gas or compounds occurs directly and separately to the detonation chamber (1) through a series of independent passages, one for the comburant and at least another passage for the combustibles, each passage being comprised of an expansion chamber (8) and of a plurality of distribution conduits (9) having a reduced cross-section and/or extended length. The expansion chamber (8) of each passage communicates directly with the corresponding supply line (4) whereas the distribution conduits (9) are conveniently distributed so that multiple gas injection points open out at the internal surface of the combustion chamber (1) in order to produce a continuous and separate supply of gas at multiple points thereby ensuring a direct and homogenous combustible mixing in the combustion chamber (1) and with a flow which is sufficient to fill the chamber (1) in each detonation cycle. <IMAGE>

Title: Immunoconjugates and prodrugs and their use in association for drug delivery
Inventor: EATON MICHAEL ANTHONY WILLIAM
IPC: C07D498/04
Filed: 1990-04-05
Granted: 1993-09-16
Abstract: A drug delivery system is described in which an immunoconjugate and a prodrug are used in association with each other to deliver a drug to a host target site such as a tumour. The immunoconjugate comprises an antibody or antibody fragment to which is attached a  beta -lactamase or an active fragment thereof. The prodrug is a cyclic amide derivative of a drug or an unstable precursor thereof in which the drug or precusor is attached to the remainder of the prodrug such that it forms a leaving group which on hydrolysis of the prodrug is eliminated as the active drug or unstable precursor. Particular prodrugs include penicillin or cephalasporin derivatives and other beta -lactams to which are attached any physiologically active substances, particularly antineoplastic agents, antiviral, antibacterial or antifungal compounds. In use the immunoconjugate is adminstered first such that it localises at the host target site. Subsequent administration of the prodrug results in  beta -lactamase catalysed hydrolysis of the prodrug at the target site with release of the active drug or unstable precursor.

Date Jul. 21, 1994A device and a method for adjusting a bandpass filter, especially a combiner filter. The method includes deriving an RF sample signal proportional to the power of a modulated RF signal which is one of: passing forward to the bandpass filter, reflected from the input of the bandpass filter and passed through the bandpass filter; down-converting the sample signal by another RF signal; detecting the signal strength of the mixing result; adjusting the center frequency of the passband of the bandpass filter on the basis of the detected signal strength. There is an essential frequency or modulation difference between the signals to be mixed, and so the mixing result is an AC signal of a lower frequency. No accurate adjustment of the phase relation of the signals to be mixed is required. Preferably, the frequency or phase difference between the signals to be mixed is accomplished by utilizing the phase modulation contained in the transmission when one of the signals is unmodulated. The DC component is filtered off the AC signal, which eliminates the measuring problems that otherwise would be caused by the DC offset properties of the mixer.\!
